SIXTH DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF FLORIDA _____________________________

Case No. 6D2023-2483 Lower Tribunal No. 2018-CA-002535-O _____________________________

Appellants,

v.

FLORIDA INJURY LAW FIRM, P.A.,

Appellee. _____________________________

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County. John E. Jordan, Judge.

June 5, 2026

PER CURIAM.

As to Appellants’ challenge to the order denying their motion for attorney’s

fees rendered after Appellants filed their notice of appeal, we dismiss this appeal.

See Fla. R. App. P. 9.110(h) (“[T]he court may review any ruling or matter occurring

before filing of the notice.”); see also, e.g., Santos v. HSBC Bank USA, Nat’l Ass’n

as Tr. for Holders of the GSAA Home Equity Tr. 2005-07, 258 So. 3d 535, 537 (Fla.

3d DCA 2018) (“Pursuant to this rule, Florida appellate courts deny review of judicial acts occurring after the filing of a notice of appeal.”). Otherwise, we affirm

in all respects without further discussion.

AFFIRMED in part; DISMISSED in part.

NARDELLA, WHITE and BROWNLEE, JJ., concur.

Roy D. Wasson, of Wasson & Associates, Chartered, Miami, for Appellee.
